In a certain code language, 'HEAD' is coded as '88', 'REAR' is coded as '64'. How will 'FRONT' be coded in that code language?
60
This is a number-coding question, so test how the letters of each word produce its number using their alphabetical positions.
Using the reverse position where A = 26, B = 25, and so on down to Z = 1 works here.
For HEAD: H = 19, E = 22, A = 26, D = 23, so the sum is \(19 + 22 + 26 + 23 = 90\), and subtracting 2 gives 88, the given code.
For REAR: R = 9, E = 22, A = 26, R = 9, so the sum is \(9 + 22 + 26 + 9 = 66\), and subtracting 2 gives 64, again matching.
Applying the same reverse positions to FRONT: F = 21, R = 9, O = 12, N = 13, T = 7.
Their sum is \(21 + 9 + 12 + 13 + 7 = 62\), and subtracting 2 gives \(62 - 2 = 60\).
Hence 'FRONT' is coded as 60.
